The Use of Tobacco.

Every tobacconist recognizes the
great change that is taking place in
what may be called in a rather new
sense the public taste Any average
tobacconist, whose trade is not chief
ly among sailors and truckmen, will
tell YOU he does not sell one-hslf as
much chewing tobacco as he did ten
years ago. and not one-tbird as much
as he did twenty years ago. Very
likely lie will be unable to guess why
it is, but he can't deny the fact. |
asked one of them about it the other
dav. He said:
1.-THE change is due to variety OF
causes. 1t is o great deal more ap-
parent here in the east than in the
west and south, but it is going on
all over the country. One thing is
undoubtedly the strength of public
opinion that it is an uncleanly habit.
| 1t is hard for man who chews to
keep evidence of it from his clothes.
That fact makes it inevitable that the
habit should GO down before the in
creasing attention to dress, that Is a
feature of modern life, Then a great
many refined and well intentioned
persons have waged war against IT
| for wears. 1t was inevitable that
some effect should follow their cru
SADIE
"But the principal causes are right
here: There is great deal more dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble in the
country now than there used to be.
And no person can chew tobacco who
has a weak stomach. James Partan
says in his famous pamphlet against
rum and tobacco that the stomach
will hold out against the weed longer
than the lungs. James does not
smoke or chew and therefore he
dosen't know. Common experlenc
shows that he is wrong, and doctors
support the verdict of common exper-
ience. The action of the tobacco
Juice which tricklesdown the chewer's
throat, is to paralyze the stomach. 1t
will do that long before smoke will
have any perceptible effect upon an
ordinary pair of lungs.
"Then the cigarette has done a
great deal to put an end to the habit
of chewing tobacco. The growth Of
the cigarette practice in this country
is, as they say Of western towns,
phenomenal The consumption of
cigarettes has doubled many times
over in the last fifteen years. About
seven out of every ten boys who are
growing up now smoke cigarettes.
And after boy has smoked cigarettes
few years be not only has no taste
for tobacco in any other form, but he
has no constitution left to stand
chewing tobacco. 1t is curious how
boys will take to cigarettes. | believe
it is very largely because of the fuss
that is made about them. 1t has got
to be the common opinion that cigar
cite smoking is the most injurious
practice known. That is justawhy
boys adopt it 1t makes them an OBJ
iect of awful interest to other boys
and to girls. 1t is soothing to a boys
foolish pride to know that people have
marked him out as one Who is rushing
with frightfnl temerity to early de-
struction. Whether that is the cause
of it or not, it is perfectly certain that
more and more cigarettes are being
sold every year and less and less
che wing tobacco.

An Arctic Horror.

Full details have been received of
the rescue of sailor named Vincent,
who is the only survivor of the whal-
ing bark Napoleon, lost in the Arctic
seas three years ago. The rescue Of
Vincent was effected by the efforts OF
the revenue ship Bear in an Indian
village near Natarin. Vincent was
in deplorable condition. The mis-
erable Indian clothing which partly
covered him was tied upon his body
to keep it from falling off, and his
head was shaved in Indian style.
When properly clothed and nourished
the unfortunate man was able to
give q history of his terrible suffer-
ings.
When the whaling bark Napoleon,
of which he was ono of the crew, was
crushed in the ice, all hands took to
the boats without procuring provi-
sions of any description
| Soon after leaving the
bark the boats became separated. the
one in which Vincent was and an
other going together, each OF these
boats containing nine men, who were
sometimes on ice and sometimes in
the boats for many days. During
| this time their food consisted solely
of two small seals and the leather of
their boots. The weather was Bit
| terly cold, and their hands, feet and
ears became frozen and dropped off.
When the boats finally reached the
shore only five of the eighteen men
composing their crews remained. Of
these Vincent was the only one who
was able to walk. Two of the men
who landed died shortly after going
ashore, and the natives reported that
one of them ate the flesh of the body
of bis dead companion. Vincent, the
mate and sailor then alone remaln-
| ed. The two latter succumbed to
death during the first winter, and
| Vincent Was left among the natives.
He had lived with the Indians for
two years and hall, and when at
last succored by Captain HeaIy he
was a most pitable specimen CT hu-
manitv.
1t is on the railroad trains that
one is most sure to hear amusing
things, as witness the following frag-
| ment overheard On an Old Colony
train recently "W hat town is this?"
one passenger asked another. 'Hhis
is Quincy 2" What is there in
Quincy ~ "Well there's some bur-
led Adamses and some unburied
Adamses, but they're all dead just
the same"
Isn't i: dreadful" asked Miss
Lilybud, 'to run over man I"
"Yes, indeed, mum, "replied the stoke

Railroad travellers often notice
farm dogs running for considerable
distance alongaide OF trains, either to
beat the iron horse or scare it of the
the track. Recently in going to the
city, we noticed fnc big black dog
coming through field toward the
train. He was fairly Tying to reach
the object before him, and coming to
q fence he bounded over and unable
to check bis speed, be ran right
against tie big driving wheel, and in
an instant he was sent through the
air, turning over and over and fell
limp and dead 10 the field. 1t was
clear case of miecalculation aud the
poor dog paid the penalty. - Valley
